PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: (call to discuss your special
needs)
The ‘average’ North American salesperson
still puts in a 53-hour week, and yet ‘averages’
less than 8 hours of direct selling time. The ‘average’
North American leader, executive or manager has in excess of 40 hours
of ‘unfinished’ work on their agenda at any one time. Whew
– no wonder we’re tired!
• How much would a 25-50% increase
in actual (not just potential) sales bring to your bottom line?
• Would it pay (ROI) to invest time learning how to systematically
increase your personal and team productivity?
• Would it pay to invest time building customer loyalty and long-term
productive partnerships?
• How would you or your sales force invest an additional 1-2 hours
per day?
This interactive, idea-rich program, challenges you to systemize and prioritize
your activities and implement streamlined processes to free-up productive
time for the face-to-face sales and marketing process. Focus on results-oriented
ideas, which allow you to redefine and accomplish your priorities, increase
your productivity, and dramatically increase your sales results by building
repeat business.
• It’s about working less, not ‘just’ smarter!
• Making more money in less time – with a better system to
enhance and sustain your performance over the long haul!
